Terrell Burgess has been sidelined since breaking his ankle in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears. He’s out for the year but that doesn’t mean he isn’t putting in work behind the scenes to get ready for the 2021 season.
This week, Burgess shared an update on his recovery and on Monday, he made a big step in the process – literally. He’s back walking for the first time since surgery, which was six weeks ago. Burgess is still using crutches and his foot is in a boot, but this is an important step in the rehab process as he gears up for Year 2 in the NFL.

Burgess also posted a video on his Instagram story of himself walking on an AlterG anti-gravity treadmill, which players often use during rehab.
The Rams certainly miss Burgess, who was just coming into his own as a backup safety before getting hurt. He’ll be back next year, though, and potentially in a starting role if John Johnson leaves in free agency.
He has a high ceiling as a former third-round pick out of Utah.
